Vikings seek trademarks for 'Minneapolis Miracle' and 'Minnesota Miracle' play

Vikings apply for trademarks after miracle win

If Stefon Diggs' remarkable touchdown in last weekend's divisional-playoff game becomes part of all-time NFL lore, the Minnesota Vikings want to own it.

Or at least the name.

On Monday, the day after the remarkable 61-yard play that resulted in a five-point victory over the New Orleans Saints and a trip to the NFC Championship Game, the team filed for three trademarks to the phrase "Minneapolis Miracle" and one to "Minnesota Miracle."

The filings showed up Friday in electronic records published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

The Vikings seek to own the monikers on more than 100 items, including football helmets, watches, golf bags, bowling bags, bathing suits and parkas.

The team is selling a T-shirt with "Minneapolis Miracle 1-14-18." Diggs, with T-shirt seller Represent, began selling an NFLPA-licensed shirt with his image and the words "Minneapolis Miracle" on Wednesday.

More than 1,000 shirts were sold online within the first 48 hours.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The reason why they'll lose to the Eagles tomorrow.

Seeing how it's a minor event, how about the Mini Miracle?

 

[OregonDucks]

That catch will just end up being a great moment if the Vikings lose to the Eagles this weekend. The only way that play turns up larger than life is if Vikings win the super bowl.

You might be able to sell t-shirts or hats. However, there's a very limited time to actually hit on this. Maybe if they win the Super Bowl, that extends through the off-season. Watches? Golf bags? Get the fuck outta here. lol

Minnesota Megaflop!!!!!

At least it was a catch!!!!!

 

[NEhomer]

How pathetic.

It should be called the New Orleans Diarrhea. For fucks sake it wasn't any kind of great play.

I am so fucking sick of hearing this shit narrative. A few local douchebags (Packer fans) have been all over this absolute stupidity.

He picked off Keenum to set up the Saints last TD! That put the Saints ahead 21-20! A guy throwing a game wouldn't ever do that!

Stupid play? Yep!

Did he decide at the very end of the game to throw it? Get out of here with that shit!
